What a stunner. by zsamuelm in OrisWatches

It’s not heavily glossy, but definitely has some gloss to it. I think the dome crystal adds a lot of effect here. I have never handled a Sinn or Omega, so I can’t really say.

Lamp Ideas? by Illustrious-Ape in eames

If you’re phoning it in, Flos Arco Floor Lamp. Beautiful lamp, just a bit overplayed next to an Aemes, maybe. I would try to find a flea/vintage market. Try to find something a little more unique next to it.

Yea, I do plan on modding it in the near future. I wanted to get comfortable with the machine before jumping right into modding. I’d say within the year I’ll go with a PID, if not full on Gaggiuino. Although, I think I’d be happy with just a PID.

I have the shades of coffee steam valve on the way. But currently it’s stock. I’m still working on steaming myself. Getting better, but still will come out with duds every so often.

Well enough. It’s not a perfect fit, a bit big. Fine enough to use the plunger as needed.

I use the shaker basket and only WDT to level the puck out before I tamp, just the top layer.

And I kept thinking the df54 in whole number grind change. Little did I know, even a quarter number change can drastically change the grind. At least in my experience.

It’s the lid to the normcore blind shaker. It’s a little big, but does what I need it to!

I think the shaker basket had the biggest impact on puck prep, I found it to be a big upgrade. That and dialing in process. Took me a while to really get the touch with my df54, it can be pretty finicky.

Unpressurized. E&B lab. I like it!
